20 Weeks

Wow!  20 weeks already!  It seems to be going by so fast.  I am feeling much better these days.  I am  constantly hungry and I'm getting sick less and less.  I have cut back on my physical activity.  A simple trip to the grocery store wears me out.  I am also trying hard not to lift heavy objects including my 30 pound son unless neccessary.  I sit down when he wants me to "hold Ben".  This has not been an easy adjustment, but he is starting to understand. 
My belly has really grown the last two weeks.  Here is the comparison of 18 and 20 weeks:


How far along: 20 Weeks
Weight gain/loss: gained 2 lbs. Net weight gained: 4lbs.
Maternity clothes: Yes
Sleep: Ok.  I wake up in the early morning around 4:00 starving and I have to go get a snack.  Falling back asleep is sometimes challenging.
Best moment this week: Listening to Ben say his brothers names.
Miss Anything? No, I am enjoying being pregnant.
Movement: Yes, they usually move at different times depending on how I'm sitting or laying down. Derek was able to feel Baby C move this week.
Food cravings: Mexican, especially nachos.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Yes, I still get sick from time to time.
Have you started to show yet? You betcha!
Gender prediction: Boy, Boy, Boy!
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy
Looking forward to: Ben's 2nd Birthday and Easter

  2. How are you able to tell which baby is moving? How are they able to tell which is which in the ultrasounds? This is just so amazing!
